Rockets put up a road block in earning a 101-92 victory over Mavs

An attempt by the Dallas Mavericks to extend their comfortable home winning streak to seven straight games was

unceremoniously blocked Wednesday night by the young Houston Rockets.

The Rockets had seven players score 10 or more points, and also blocked a whopping 19 shots on their way to upsetting the Mavs, 101-92, before a sellout crowd of 19,602 at American Airlines Center. The 19 blocks are the most ever by a Mavs’ opponent and are the most for the Rockets since they set the franchise record of 20 blocks on the same day 38 years ago.
